Man, Nick Simmons, way to fail. Next time try plagiarizing something that isn't among the most recognized anime/manga series in the west. No, wait, next time try not to plagiarize at all.

I'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt in one thing, though; I don't think this guy's resemblance to Mr. 0 Sir Crocodile is intentional.

He's really sailing the failboat, isn't he? But on the other hand, more entertainment for us!

Totally. Watching this thing unfold is quality entertainment.

WOW. I don't think I've ever seen blatant theft like that in an official work. D: Mangaka in Japan had to go on a break/step down for less. (Wasn't there that one woman once who traced poses from Gucci ads or sth?)
And there was that gif on an entire animation sequence in Naruto (Chuunin exams, Neji VS Naruto) that was ripped frame-for-frame from the Cowboy Bebop movie...

But agreed, the guy with glasses looks more like that one guy from Fullmetal Alchemist (Greed, I think?).

ETA: Uh, yeah, Greed. I should finish reading that thread first. ;)

I don't think I've heard of the Cucci tracing incident, or if I have, only in passing. But yeah, I don't get how that could possibly have seemed like a good idea to him.

Yeah, he's more like a Greed with a little bit of Hellsing tracing thrown in. The 'do and the fur lining are the only things pointing Croc's way, but they're generic enough to be coincidences.

Wowie wow, that is so amazing! I wouldn't dream of stealing him, though because I have a totally and completely original character of my own! Here he (or possibly she, I don't even know) is:

the worst (best?) part is these aren't even exaggerations of what's going on in that comic
